Periodic Advertisement

[karoun]

Hello,

I am using nrf52840DK and I try to send data from sensor to ble toolbox. I want it to advertise for 1 minute and then go sleep for 5 minutes and do it again and again. I wonder how can I do it? should I use board MCU to be able to do that?

Best regards,

Kosar

Yes the nRF52840 is perfectly capable to perform the operation you want. Start a single shot timer for 1 minute and start advertising, upon receiving the timer stop advertisement and run another timer for 5 min and start advertisement on expiration of 5 min timer and so on.
